12:50 pm: Problems with some closed auctions
Due to a technical problem, the details of a small number of completed auctions are currently not available to traders. We are working on restoring this data and expect to have it back very shortly.
We apologise for any inconvenience.
Scheduled maintenance
Trade Me will be unavailable from approximately 5:00 am to 9:00 am on Saturday the 28th of May for scheduled maintenance and upgrades. All affected auctions will be extended.
We apologise in advance for any inconvenience this may cause.
Category changes
Today we removed some categories which had little to no listings in them. We are constantly reviewing the category tree and if in future these need to be reinstated, we will do so. If your item was listed in any of the categories that have been removed, you will be prompted to reselect a category when re-listing. All of the other auction details will be carried over as per normal, including your photo. If you have any feedback, please use the "contact us" link.
10:20 pm: Technical problems tonight

5:15 pm: Site problems this evening
We experienced some issues with our internet connection from approximately 4:45 pm to 5:00 pm today which affected the speed and availability of Trade Me.
We’re currently investigating the problem and will be doing all we can to ensure it doesn’t happen again. We apologise for any inconvenience.
